Nobody actually apologized for anything, it's just another lame 'right' news source trying to twist things so the right wingers can sit and tell lies to each other.

Apologizing for Arizona - Ben Smith: Apologizing for ArizonaMay 17, 2010
Categories:Misc.Apologizing for Arizona
A State Department official's expression of regret in human rights talks with China over Arizona's new immigration law has sparked sharp protests from conservatives, but a State Department spokesman didn't respond to a request to comment on the concession.
The AP reported that Assistant Secretary of State Michael Posner told reporters that "officials also discussed Chinese complaints about problems with U.S. human rights, which have included crime, poverty, homelessness and racial discrimination.
"He said U.S. officials did not whitewash the American record and in fact raised on its own a new immigration law in Arizona that requires police to ask about a person's immigration status if there is suspicion the person is in the country illegally."
